Surviving Sudan

You run. We will Shoot.

And if you survive you can go.

That’s what women were told by fighters in Sudan. They ran and somehow made it to a refugee camp in neighbouring Chad.

There are about a million people from Sudan now in Chad, who escaped a brutal civil war that has raged for almost three years. Humanitarian groups are struggling to provide shelter, food and water while the world mostly looks away from what’s being called the world’s worst humanitarian disaster.

In this documentary, Surviving Sudan, journalist and filmmaker Michelle Shephard shares the stories of some of the people who made it out.
